Question

Point A is located at -0.75 and point B 1/4 is located at on a number line.

Part A: Which expression shows how to find the distance between points A and B?

Answer 1

The distance between Points A and B is 1.

Explanation:

Given that Point A is located at -0.75 and Point B is located at 1/4 on a number line, to determine which expression shows how to find the distance between points A and B the following calculation must be performed:

1/4 = 0.25

-0.75 + X = 0.25

X = 0.25 - (-0.75)

X = 0.25 + 0.75

X = 1

Therefore, the distance between Points A and B is 1.
